Title: debugger menu item disabled in CodeBlocks
Post by: mq on January 28, 2020, 10:13:29 am

Since my debugger didn't work, I deleted default configuration", while it still didn't, so I delete the new debugger I have created and reset the Default one, now, the menu item on CodeBlocks were all grey and disable. Is here any solution ?

Use an CB Project.

No, it is not; a CB Plugin requires a CB Project to build it.
You have no CB Project open!

Edit: Debugger is a CB Plugin; your code is not.

Post a build log in Code Tags; if you want more feedback!

Debugging without a CB Project does not work to my knowledge!

Thanks for you gave me the link:http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Creating_a_new_project

it inspired me, I found the solution:settings-->compiler-->compiler settings-->compilers Flags-->debugging-->produce debugging symbols.  Marked this item, the menu active again.

The new question is:

Debugger name and version: GNU gdb (GDB) 8.1
Starting the debuggee failed: No executable specified, use `target exec'.
Debugger finished with status 0

Where to set this one?
